NO. I owned an SRT-4. The ACR package (suspension, wheels, tires) will not outhandle a stock S2000.

However, what I meant was that in my dimented utopian mind, a car should only be called a "roadster" if it was truely conceived to be a 2 seat ragtop convertible and ONLY a 2 seat ragtop convertible. (Miata, S2000, Sky/Solstice, Boxster, Z3/4) If a car is also offered with a fixed roof, then the drop top version is simply a convertible version of the coupe. (911, Corvette, TT, 350z, 430 Spyder, Gallardo, Mercielago).
At first I thought this was a stupid definition.. but then I got to thinking about what 2 seat verts I didn't consider to be roadsters, and low and behold, all of them fit the definition

ok my friend just got this car a little while back and he is obsessed with it
he's one of those guys who knows the stats of every single car
in the world and will argue with u for days about it until he gets his way

so he tells me today his srt-4 with the stupid acr package will outhandle
my s2000
what?
he said he tightened his suspension (it's adjustable) and his tires are
225s (not sure what brand) and weighs 3100 pounds

so am i supposed to believe a dodge can outhandle the legendary s2000?

oh btw this kid also gave me the stats our cars get on the skidpad
and our quarter mile time lol

No, it won't outhandle an S2000. Why? Because the LSD in the Neon is a locking differential.

but, with unlimited money, you can turn any car into a racecar. I've seen this Best Motoring video in which a CRX won the race, second place was NSX-R.
